May 3- May 5 2013 Sierra Vista etc. Last blog before we head north.

Our time in the Sierra Vista area is winding down.  Here is a link to our Rv Park; http://goo.gl/maps/ZPORs
It is a little late but I have finally figured out how to put a link to a map of interest.
Coming home today we saw the border patrol apprehending about 7-8 Mexicans that had come through the mountains.  This is about 5 miles from the RV Park.  Got to remember to lock the door.

Least Grebe.  Seen on our second visit to Pena Blanca Lake west of Rio Rico.    http://goo.gl/maps/cYCZe

No trip to the southwest would be complete without some Roadrunner shots.  

Most Roadrunners we saw were running the other way.  This one came to me.

Cienegas grassland area close to Sonoita.  

Inca Dove San Pedro

We were all done birding for the day when we read a report of a White-eared Hummingbird at Beattys.    We hopped into the truck and headed out for one last twitch before we head out to Show Low Az. tomorrow.  http://goo.gl/maps/iZKPv
